there is pretty much ice everywhere now... just went from + temps to subartic temps in a week and hardly a handful of people willing to brave it

Speedog, did they install those lights at highwood ? Who's bright idea was it to put short fencing behind the nets ?
City of Calgary is managing the project and that's why we still don't have lights and have odd fencing - the fencing on the ends is taller, just not as tall as it should be. Ice guy (Justin) will get ice in once lights are in and running, kind of difficult to flood in the dark. I helped install the players benches a few weeks ago.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Thanks for the update. If the city is running the show, we'll be lucky to have those lights installed before the odr season is over.
Stopped by Highwood last night, still no lights but there is good ice down. Nets are out and the rink has been getting used.

Drove by Beddington CA building today and noticed that the boards on the rink there are no more - just two large expanses of ice now.
Highwood, all the new LED lighting is in and working - a much better lighting source in the rink, shadows are way less noticeable. Improvements still to come, a skate change shack and some other odds and ends.
Will fuck off, again.
Bump, getting to be that time of year again. Any updates on any ODR's yet this year?

Nov 1 bump. With the cold weather I'm assuming some ODR's will be up and running soon. Anyone see any work going on at their local rink yet?

Not enough of a cold stretch yet and warmer daytime temperatures would still create issues. I'll check some north end rinks on the way home, nothing at Rosemont yet as of yesterday afternoon.
Will fuck off, again.
Looks like we will be in for some cold here over the next few weeks. Hopefully we get some rinks out of it!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

They're still playing basketball in Highwood's ODR.
Will fuck off, again.
Anyone know of any rinks open yet?
Heard that Stanley Park was ready to go. With the temps being positive this week who knows how long it lasts.
